Switch from Paymo
Paymo was perfect when you were five people. Now every new hire costs you $12/month in seat fees — and you still can't pay a team member or close your books. Time to graduate.
Every one of these is something Paymo can't do — or doesn't offer at all.
Paymo charges per user ($15.90/user/month on Plus at list price)
CherryWorks Pro includes unlimited users on every plan. A 15-person firm saves $2,862/year in seat fees alone.
No general ledger or accounting module
CherryWorks Pro includes a full chart of accounts, double-entry journal entries, trial balance report, and bank reconciliation.
No project profitability or utilization reports
CherryWorks Pro includes 19 reports: project profitability, team utilization, AR aging, expense analytics, and more.
No 1099 + W-2 + Corp-to-Corp support
Manage all three worker classifications in one platform. Smart onboarding adapts to each type. Payouts, tax exports, and compliance are built in.
No payout tracking
Automatic payout creation when invoices are sent. Track ACH, Zelle, wire — and export 1099 totals at year-end.
No import wizard for data migration
Upload CSVs from any platform. Preview with dry-run. Execute with one click. Full rollback if anything looks wrong.
Built for small teams, not scaling firms
Paymo works for teams of 5. CherryWorks Pro is built for agencies managing 10, 50, or 100+ team members across projects.
